How to release LUSE on XP12000 using command view XP

Hello,

We are using command view XP CV2.1.I have created a LUSE (OPEN-E*8) on an XP12000. The LUSE has not been assigned to a server/port. I would like to delete the LUSE but are unable to.

I click the "Volume Management" button and select the LUSE (first ldev). The ldev appears in the "Expanded LDEVS" box. I would expect to be able to delete the LUSE, but this option is greyed out. Do I have to perform additional actions to be able to release the LUSE.

Hello,

Thanks for your replies. I will assign points later. I have attached a document that shows (as far as I know) that the LUSE has not been assigned to any host/port as well as the selection of the LUSE in volume mgmt without the delete option ungreyed.

In that last screen, have you tried highlighting all 8 member LDEVs (top pane) of the LUSE instead and see if the DELETE button becomes ungreyed? Also try right-clicking after you've selected all 8 member LDEVS..

Hello,

Once again thank you for the replies.If I am correct the screenshot shows that 'modify mode' is active (the number of minutes remaining in session). I tried selecting the CU.LDEV 00:31. Right clicking in the left screen is not possible. It is possible to select all LDEVS in the LUSE, right click and select 'release LUSE'. However an error message appears (screenshots). The same error happens when only one of the LDEVS in the LUSE is selected and 'release LUSE' is chosen.

Hello,

An HP consultant had a meeting today with a colleague of mine and solved the mystery for us. There is a trick to do this. Do no unfold the CU folder in volume management, but select the LUSE directly in the right screen. Right click and select 'Release LUSE'.
